[PATCH] [v5]Input: evdev: fix bug of dropping full valid packet after syn_dropped

From: Aniroop Mathur
Date: Wed Jan 13 2016 - 06:58:50 EST


If last event in old queue that was dropped was EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT, then
lets generate EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT immediately after queing EV_SYN/SYN_DROPPED
so that clients would not ignore next valid full packet events.
